Thomas Brend (c. 1516 – 21 September 1598) of West Molesey, Surrey, was a London scrivener, and the owner of the land on which the Globe Theatre was built.〔.〕 ==Family== The names of Thomas Brend's parents〔Berry notes that the ''Victoria County History of Surrey'' mistakenly attributes to him a father named Thomas.〕 and his place of birth are unknown. He is known to have had one brother, also named Thomas, who was alive in 1599.〔.〕 Two nephews, Francis Brend, son of his brother, Thomas, and Ralph Baldwin, are mentioned in his will.〔.〕 Brend was born about 1516.〔.〕 His family's social standing appears to have been modest. In a deposition Brend gave in 1582, the examiner described him first as 'gentleman', and then as 'esquire', both of these being subsequently crossed out and replaced by 'examinant'.〔.〕 From 1580 on, Brend customarily referred to himself in terms denoting his place of residence and profession, 'citizen and writer of the court letter of London', rather than in terms denoting his social status.〔.〕 However he was granted a coat of arms in 1591,〔.〕 and in his memorial inscription is referred to as 'esquire'.〔.〕
